Gladiators, we’re almost there! Today is March 14, 2025, and it’s the final day of the third quarter. Only a few more months are left before we take our turn marching across the stage, and today is the day we need to reignite the flame in us again.
During Thursday’s announcements, we heard the quote of the day: “A winner is a dreamer who never gives up.” – Nelson Mandela. It’s a powerful reminder of the struggles and perseverance that define success. Too often, people abandon their dreams after investing time and effort, discouraged by setbacks. I’ve been there myself questioning whether I could keep going after facing failures. But I got back up, not because I was stronger or better than anyone else, but because I refused to let go of my goals.
We are not born resilient, we create it. And life will test it time and time again. Nelson Mandela was jailed for 27 years for fighting against apartheid, never hesitated in his dream of a free South Africa. Even behind bars, his fight didn’t stop. His determined resilience changed the texture of history.
Each of us has a story filled with both triumphs and setbacks. The question is: how will yours be told? Will you let obstacles bring you down, or will you push through and create a legacy of resilience?
Gladiators, the world needs your passion, your drive, and your power. Keep moving forward, your story is just beginning!
